Hu Ji lightly exhaled: "From now on, the border between the two countries will be along the front Clear Water River?"
"A thousand years ago, this was originally the Great Wilderness Territory, but it was occupied by Yan Country. Reclaiming Dragon City today is not aggression; it's merely the recovery of our ancestral lands."
Hu Ji smiled: "Whether it's Your Majesty or the court officials, the greatest hope seems to be defending Zheyuntai, rather than having thoughts of recovering lost lands. What are you thinking with this big step you've taken today?"
"What thoughts could I have? It's merely convenience."
"Not necessarily," Hu Ji said. "Expanding territory and creating new borders could grant you the title of Prince, which is the ancestral custom of the Great Wilderness. Are you, Marquis, perhaps thinking of becoming a Prince?"
"You..." Lin Xiaosu shook his head gently, "Do you really think I have a chance to be granted the title of Prince under this Emperor?"
